Sep 20, 2008 Updated: Aug 29, 2009Bottle courtesy of sloth. Pours a clear orange with a thick, foamy white head. Aroma of bitter piney and citrusy hops. Flavor of a hint of pine, but mostly citrusy. A little on the bitter side but still quite tasty and drinkable. 7/4/8/4/14 Ɠ.7/5)
Update 8/29/09: Light fruits and citrus in this one with lots of caramel malt. Bitterness in the finish but I wouldn’t say that this is on the bitter side (contrary to above). Very nice IPA, very chill drinking. Would make an awesome sessioner.

Sep 20, 2008 Updated: Aug 29, 2009Bottle. Aroma of floral (including a unique herbal grassiness) and more notably grapefruit hop notes. Flavor big on oily hops with a malt that is as sweet as the hops are oily. Quite bitter though, especially in the finish. Hops also a touch harsh at times, but doesn’t detract from the beer for me. Very tasty. 8-4-7-4-15/3.8
Rerate 8/29/09. Bottle. Aroma of grapefruit, peach, hay, pure and fresh hop leaves. Flavor of lots of tropical fruit and bitter hop notes with smooth caramelly malt. Quenchingly dry. My memory of this beer was better than my 3.8 rating, and my memory was (for once) dead on.

Sep 18, 2008 On tap: pours copper color. Caramel and hop aroma. Slight caramel malt that is overpowered by hops. Good beer, but I am not the biggest fan of Great Divide’s hop profile. To me the profile and hop dryness seems heavy and wet. I prefer it to be crisp and dry. Like Russian River or Avery.

Sep 17, 2008 Updated: Sep 18, 2008[EBF @ Copenhagen, September 2008] Thanks to Morten. Average creamy beige head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Cloudy amber color. Lovely biscuit notes blended with chewy fruity hops. This beer is really well balanced between the hoppy crisp freshness and sweet malty tones. Notes of peach, citrus, toffee, grain, mild fruit and floral notes as well. Medium bodied with an average carbonation and mild dry, very smooth texture. Moderated sweet and bitter flavor in a balanced complemented way. Lingering dry hoppy finish with a biscuit like sweet way.

Sep 17, 2008 Updated: Jul 14, 2009Great IPA, well balanced with Great divides nuttyness in both taste and aroma along side fresh piney hops. Full of taste yet very easy to drink. Looks great to with a proper off-white head.

Sep 15, 2008 Golden like a pilsner. The aroma is hoppy with notes of grass. Flavor is also grassy. Complex.

Sep 14, 2008 Fad. EBF 2008. Endnu en lækker øl fra et af mine favoritbryggerier. Stor cadeau til Danish beerhouse for at hive disse øl til Danmark på fad. Perfekt IPA, der går rent igennem selvom ens smagsløg er komplet skudt i stykker på dette tdspunkt. Helt klart et besøg værd igen og igen.
